Maloney Vision Institute: Helping the World to See in HD

Dr. Robert Maloney

Meet Dr. Maloney- World-Renowned Eye Surgeon.
When Dr. Robert Maloney decided to become an eye surgeon, over twenty-five years ago, he had a simple goal: he wanted to help people see better. And perhaps because Dr. Maloney doesn’t do things halfway and doesn’t believe in “just okay,” that goal was rapidly supplanted by a new one: to give his patients great vision, without the need for glasses or contact lenses. And after almost twenty years of working at the forefront of innovative vision correction surgery, he’s made that target an attainable one.

Why Maloney Vision Institute?

The Maloney Vision Institute was established in Los Angeles in 1998 by Dr. Robert Maloney, the first surgeon in western North America to perform LASIK surgery as part of the original FDA clinical trials. A clinical professor of ophthalmology at UCLA, Doctor Maloney has trained more than 1,000 surgeons in the use of the excimer laser and has personally performed more than 60,000 vision correction surgeries.
Since its inception, the Maloney Vision Institute has been a center for innovation and research in vision correction surgery. Its status as an FDA-authorized Study Center means that MVI surgeons examine, test and evaluate all of the latest technologies available for vision correction, so that when new advances are approved by the FDA, Dr. Maloney is already experienced in their use.

IntraLase Method ensures blade-free LASIK surgeries, which are more comfortable, more precise, and faster healing;

The LenSx Femtosecond laser, which Dr. Maloney uses to make cataract removal surgery completely bladeless, all computer-controlled and programmed by Dr. Maloney.

Personalized Vision Correction

When it comes to your eyes, one size does not fit all. Your eyes are just as unique as your fingerprints, and the exact correction that you need, will be different from the correction needed by anyone else.

At Maloney Vision Institute, we have every resource available to diagnose, plan and treat your eyes, so that you can have your best possible personal vision. We can offer you the exact treatment that you need, not just the treatment that is easiest for us to give you.

Because he is a leading researcher in the field, Dr. Maloney is able to offer you vision correction options other than LASIK, and will personalize your vision care with the technique that is best suited for your eyes. If you’re not a good candidate for a given procedure, he’ll tell you.
